Counting down the days

Hi, this weekend 1996pwrstrk and cookies88 and maybe others will be installing my DP tuner, gauges and valvebody.

My question is with thread about surging I am wanting to get a ATS for my truck…where would be the best place to buy it from and how much can I expect to spend?

Thanks

Yeah i can't wait, should i get the ATS or wait and see how bad it surges? Is it for a fact that the DP Tuner will make it surge with the added horsepower?

I would do it now because you will get surge with your setup. I get it bad.

I do not believe you will have any issues except maybe when towing heavy.

I am slow. I did not think surge was an issue unless towing?

Looking at your sig, I don't see a tuner/chip in it. You will not get surge without one. With the DP-TUNER you will get surge every time you go WOT in anything from 80e up. DP is sooooo bad. lol

You can get surge towing without a chip -- that much is true. I don't think I've heard of anyone getting it stock without towing. I had it bad at about 22-23psi & up, but I put the Wicked Wheel on and it's nice now. I understand the ATS moves more air, which is never a bad thing -- that in combination with a 1.0 exhaust housing will have you a really nice turbo setup ready for some injectors...

Hey guys, i ended up getting the ATS from dieselpowerproducts.com Should it by Friday, just in time for Saturday's big get together. Just wanted to make sure i did it right the first time and not have to add anything else.

So this ATS will definately get rid of any surge without having to add the WW later.
